I already wrote before I left about the things I thought I would miss, so here is what I cannot WAIT to have when I’m back in Amurica. I’m sure I’ll be thrilled to have even more things (like a cell phone and the Celtics) that Cuba has just conditioned me out of thinking I need, at the moment. Don’t worry, I’m sure that later on this week I’ll be posting about all the Cuban stuff I miss. But for now, all I can think about is home home HOME!
- honey bbq wings
- honey mustard wings
- bbq bacon cheeseburger
- BMG and DMG
- My giant family
- New Baby Alexandra Murphy! And Coming-Soon Baby Harrington!
- Andrew Robert Brady
- Chicken Lou’s TKO
- cereal
- milk
- steak
- thai food
- REAL Italian, where the pasta isnt overcooked
- Mondo buffalo pizza=my life force
- really any meat that isn’t a mystery
- hot showers
- quiznos, $5 foot longs even moreso
- comfortable beds
- back rubs (because of the aforementioned lack of comfy beds)
- American tv, sort of. But that’s way down on the list. I’d take the food, showers or bed over television any day
- It’ll be nice to have more of my closet back, but I was doing just fine with what I packed
- I WILL love the ease of laundry in the states, however
- fast walkers
- rapid restaurants (although I think I’ll be overwhelmed at first)
- personal space
- not being harassed by men on the street. Yeah right, I live in Boston. But Reading will be nice.
If you spent three months in a developing nation where food was scarce and not many people speak your first language, what would YOU miss?
